For Asian, Black, and Hispanic with skin types 4, 5, & 6 use the following colors as your guide:
  • For a black look, use Mahogany.
  • For a dark brown look, then use German Chocolate, Cafe` Ole, or Royal Fudge.
  • For a medium brown look, you may want to use either Chocolate Truffle, Cocoa, or Copper.
  • For a light brown look; use Bordeaux, Milk Chocolate, or Caramel.
  • For Brunettes of Dark, Medium, and Light Brown hair with skin types 1,2, or 3:
  • For a black color use Charcoal or Mahogany
  • For a medium to dark brown color, use Earth or Expresso or German Chocolate.
  • For a medium brown color, use Cafe Vienna or Cappuccino
  • For a lighter brown color Fawn, Hazelnut, or Bashful Blonde.

For Blondes, Gray, or White hair with skin types 1, 2, or 3:
  • The most popular colors for ash blondes are those in the Cool Collection, Fawn, Hazelnut, or Bashful Blonde.
  • The most popular color for warm blondes is Bordeaux, Milk Chocolate, or Caramel.
  • For golden blondes, Hazelnut, Cappuccino, Milk Chocolate or Caramel is an excellent choice.
  • For an even lighter choice, use Amber for the client that does not want too cool or too warm of a color.

For Strawberry Blondes, Redheads or Auburn hair color with skin types 1, 2, or 3:
  • For a dark brown look, then use Chocolate Truffle, Royal Fudge, or Cafe` Ole`.
  • For a medium brown look, you may want to use either Cocoa or Copper.
  • For a light brown look; use Bordeaux, Cappuccino, Milk Chocolate, or Caramel.
  • Remember that red counteracts green and vise versa.
  • Therefore a client with an olive complexion will absorb a red color better because the green will absorb the red in the color.
  • Use warmer colors on olive complexioned skin tones and ashier colors on reddish skin tones.
